A tincture is a concentrated liquid extract of an herb. ‘ Like good wine it is a living compound and takes time to mature’. This preparation enables us to preserve and store an herb for use in home remedies primarily as a therapeutic compound. It is a very practical workshop and you will become confident to grow and prepare herbal roots like dandelion and burdock. Using combinations of dried or freshly dug roots you will discover how to prepare and tincture root herbs for your own use in creams, tonics and other preparations. The roots can be tinctured in various liquid solutions and we will discuss the use of alcohol, water and vinegar to produce unique and blends to experiment with at home.
